LENTCAzT 31 Friday 4th Week of Lent – Our God is not a remote God, intangible in his blessedness.

Today is Friday of the 4th Week of Lent.

We hear today about the ancient Roman Station, something by Origen on Prayer, and a thought from Benedict XVI.  

From Benedict:

Our God is not a remote God, intangible in his blessedness. Our God has a heart. Indeed, he has a heart of flesh; he was made flesh precisely to be able to suffer with us and to be with us in our suffering. He was made man to give us a heart of flesh and to reawaken within us love for the suffering, for the destitute.

Pray for Pope Francis.

    Thank you Father Z. I am on the road and you are one of my anchors in this world. JESUS, show us the Way.

    This LENTCAzT (Friday) downloaded successfully to iTunes. Yesterday’s (Thursday) has not.

    acardnal, there are actually two FrZ PODCAzTs in iTunes. Thursday’s is in the old version, not in the new one. AFAIK, the only one that has not shown up in either list is #9 (for Thursday of the first week of Lent). This was no big deal in the old days when you could safely mix downloaded mp3s with podcasts in playlists, but since the devil took over Apple management (they couldn’t possibly be that stupid, so it has to be malice) that doesn’t work any more.

    Emilio III, thanks for that. I have the most current version of iTunes so I guess that explains it. . . another Apple screw up.

    I waited a couple months before downloading the newest version hoping all bugs would be fixed.

    You’re right. I don’t have LENTCAzT #9 or #30 in my iTunes library. They never downloaded.
